• red and white coca cola signage

    Hello, dear friends. I hope you are all finding health and happiness these days, and are in touch with all the ways that you stay grounded and empowered in the world.

  • hands formed together with red heart paint

    Dear friends, here we are. After all the build up, predictions, shouting and polls, we are now post-election, 2024. As tired as we all may be, I think it’s worth it to take a moment and allow that reality to sink in. We are facing a new era, and that leaves us with a question: what now? [...]

There’s a light breeze, the daffodils are nodding proudly, and the leaf buds on the trees are bright, bright green. Everything is emerging, presenting itself, and bursting open. I’m uplifted by this beauty, for sure, and I’m also struck [...]

  • One of my teachers, Jon Eisman, often says “humans are meaning making machines.” This might be at the core of what makes us human. And like almost everything, this instinct has both helpful and challenging aspects.  The challenging aspect of how we humans are driven towards meaning is what I’m going to call “little m” meaning making.

  • I honor all the women who came before me and blazed trails that give me life and hope. From Suffragettes like Emmeline Pankhurst  to Civil Rights Activists like Angela Davis, strong and determined women have pushed back against oppression and discrimination. And we have much to still learn about being feminists and holding an intersectional lens; watch Kimberlé Crenshaw speak [...]
